The Question of the Adm,” 02 of Senators from Rebel States Dispose f Mr. Harlan Confirmed as Secreta'ty °f the Interior, ¢ &., &e. PRA LSay Wasuunatow, March 9, 1815. * SBORETARY M’OULLOCH’s srEEcH. ‘The principal officers of the Treasury Departma waited in a body thia morning upon the Hon. Hugh Me- Oullooh, to congratulate him upon his succession to the Becretaryship. After an exchange of friendly greetings Mr. McCulloch made the following remarks:— GuwrTLEmex—It is perhaps well known to you thatthe pie I hold as Secretary of the Treasury was unso- icited and undesired by me. I have been gratified by the endorsement I have received from the unexpected ple and the press, and I am profoundl; teful to Tro President for thd honot he has ‘conferred, upon me ia making me his financial minister. ut nde say, appreciating as I do the eo the position, that I enter upon the discharge of my new duties with unfeigned meinctance. I desire to stand well with my eer, 6am as anxious as any ono can be to Merit their esteem. But [ have no ambition for place. ‘The Sscretaryship of the Treas“ ry in itself has no charms for me. I have no desire to dispcuse its ay nor ‘am T in the slightest degree claced by its honors. I have accepted this responsible position becuse there seemed ‘to be a strong desire of the public that I should doy do 80, and because it was tendered to me -without pledges and without conditions; I have aceepted it as an independent man, desiring only to maintain and strengthen the public credit and to do my duty to the nation. And although conscious cf my inability to meet the public expectations, and fully aw2re of the difficulties to be surmounted, I am not without Strong hopes of success in the great work which is before mo. I have confidence in our national resources, and in tho steady, unwavering determination of ' the loyal people of the country, irrespective of party, to pre- serve the Union and maintain the public faith. ’ Lhave confidence that the people will choerfully furnish the Money required to bring the war toa successful con- clusion, and that thoy will be able to bear any burthens that have been or may be created in the great contest which the government is ing for its own preserva- tion. My hopes of a successful administration of the affairs of this department are also strengthened by the consideration that Iam to have the hearty and ef- ficient support of the upright and able men around me, If T have not been misinformed, | am the third man who been elevated from a subordinate position in the Treasury Department to be the head of it. It has so happoned that as a banker and as Comp- troller of the Currency... I have been better known to the public than the heads of the other bureaus, and I was thorefore preferred for this high place to men of at Teast Spal ability, if mot equal financial experi- ence. instead, therefore, of there _ bein, Jealousy on your part,’ the fact ° been the’ head of a bureau, will, I doubt not, secure for mea more hearty and generous support than you have ever given to my distinguished pre- qceenors, home, “ra earned and — established rept ns made this support less necessary to them than it will be to me, My chief aim will, of course, be to provide means to discharge the claims upon tho Troasury at the earliest day practicable, and to institute measures to bring the business of the country lually back tothe specie basis, a departure from which, although for the time being a necessity, is no lesa Ley: and demoralizing to the people than expensive to government. But while these will be the main objects with me, I shall not be unmindful of the importance of having the current business of the sali ae conducted with fidelity and despatch. In this you will give me efficiont aid. You will not permit it to be truthfully ca'd that under the administration of one who has been of your own num- ber the credit suffered for want of ability on the hho Chief of the Department or efficiency in the You will, I feel assured, enlighten me by your wisdom and knowledge, and strengthen me by increased attention to your respective duties. No effort shall be wanting on my part—I am sure that none will be wanting on-yours—to make the relations between us harmonious cordial, and to infuse new life into the business of the department. If our efforts in this direction are sucessful, the best resuits will follow to ourselves and to the coun- Commissioner Lewis, on behalf of the Treasury offi- ers, tendered their cordial congratulations, in an appro- priate address, saying in conclusion :— Your success will deserve the gratitude of the nation the of hi If wo can in our limited hieres do anything to promote it we shall do it cheer- filly and with all intelligent guidance to labor in season ‘and out of season for the honor of the Treasury and the welfare of the country. As men we cando no more. As servants of the people we ought to do no less. RESIGNATION OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY HARRING- Mea. TON. Mr. George W. Harrington has tendered his resigna- tion as Assistant Secrotary of the Treasury, He did the same thing when Mr, Fessenden wont into the Troasury. ‘Tho latter invited him tostay; it is gencrally expected that Mr, McCulloch will accept the resignation. RESIGNATION OF MR. 8. M. CLARK. It ta also stated that Mr. 8. M. Clark has resigned his fice of Superintendent of the currency printing bureau. APPOINTMENTS CONFIRMED BY THE SENATE. The Senate executive session to-day confirmed a large number of military nominations, including Brigadier General Rawiins, to be chief of staff to Licutenant Gene- fal Grant, and Colonel Jordan, Ninth Pennsylvania, to be brigadier general by brevet. < The President to-day nominated James Harlan, Senator from Towa, to be Secretary of the Interior in place of Judge Usher, who has tendered his resicnation, to take effect on the Ist of May, in order that in the meantime ‘de may settle certain business pending in the depart- ent. The nomination of Mr. Harlan was confirmed ‘ananimously without previous reference to a standing committee, in accordance with the usage in cases where the nominees are, or have been, members of the Senate. Hon. Frooman Clark, of New York, ex-Congressman, ‘was to-day confirmed as Comptroller of the Currency. The Senate confirmed many miscellaneous nominations: mong thom Charles L. Benedict to be judge, Benjamin D, Silliman, district attorney, and A. F. Campbell, mar- shal of the new United States court for the State of New York, to be held in Brooklyn. ILLNESS OF SEORETARY STANTON. Secretary Stanton has been too ill during the past two or three days to attend at the department and sign official 13, nade OHANGRS IN DEPARTMENT OFFICES. It is surmised that the proposed delay of the adjourn- ment of tho Senate until next week has been caused by dotermination to make farther and radical chai the moro important offices in several of the departments, MR. BARNEY AN IMPORTANT PERSONAGE. Developments during the last few days exhibit the fact that Hiram Barney, of New York, has become an import- ‘ant personage in the estimation of the President. Under bis suggestion the cotton captured at Savannah, if sold in Now York, is to be divided in parcels among ail the auc- tioneors of thatolty. Under this arrangement the gov- ernment will have to pay one-half por cent coinmigsion or its salo, instead of twoand a half. The storchouses on Staton Island, whidh were reported by Draper as unfit to receive the cotton, are, nevertheicss, to be used under the advice of Barney. Some of the parties who had made @rrangements to store it in York have found their calculations sadly interfered 5 SUMNER AND SAULSBURY. ‘The entente cordic 3; between Sumner and Saulsbury at Gret caused great surprise and no little amusement; but now the affair has grown more serious, aa foars are enter- tained that the conjunction may prove fatal, not only to tho Sonator from Delaware, who has not been in his seat for nearly @ week, but also to that forlorn hope of the re- public, the old fogy democratic party, THE SRNATE. Tho Senate will probably not adjounn till Monday or Tuosday next. HAMLIN GOING HOME DISGUSTED. Ex-Vico President Hamlin departed for his home in Maine this morning, thoroughly disgusted with overy jing and almost everybody in public life, excepting the ident. He complains that almost every one with whom he has had anything to do has played him false, ‘With the Secretary of tho Navy, whom he was in- fuential in having appointed to his present position, he Das scarcely exchanged a word during the Inst two years; While Me. Feasondon, whom he assisted to engineer into the Treasury, some months since, with the understanding Phat he should remain in tho Cabinet and leave Hamlin a Blear track for his place in the Senate, had no sooner ed that position than he turned the whole patron- engpeee and machinery of his department into the rt to secure his own return to the Senate and the do- of Mr. Hamlin, In this work itis avorred that ho @ willing tool in his Collector of Internal enue at Portland, Israol Washburne, Jr., who in {@ looking with covotous eyes upon tho seat we in the Senate now ocoupted by Senator Morrill.

Mr. Hamlin goes home armed with all the points of his adversary, even to his aspiration to the Presidency in 1868, and if he doce not succeed in pulling the astute ex-Secretary'’s air castle down about his head during the next four years, he»is not the sagacious wirepuller be has been taken for. THE ARKANSAS AND LOUISIANA SENATORS. The pet project for which diajor General Banks has been laboring here two or three months past was effecty- ally quieted to-day for the present by the reference of the credoutials of the Arkansas and Louisiana Senators to the Judiciary Committee, to be reported upon at the next session. $0 these two States, whose governments the General lobored 50 assiduously to reorganize, are loft ott in the cold till noxt winter, and the political fruits of the ked river campaign cannot be harvested at present; and there 7?

It now appears that the idea of taking Vice President Jo, *nson to Biiver Springs originated with Preston King and , that he accompanied Johnson and Blair to that re- treat, It is also stated in official circles to-night that several » octors have been called in for consultation, with a view of, “king out a caso of temporary insanity, and thus obtain'a, 2 &Xcuse to dispose of the Vice President Tho fact that &, " JOhnson was nominated at Baltimore nce of Weed and Seward, ia much com- radicals, Seward is held responsible disgraceful scene in the Senate, ‘e to make @ point on this fact. ‘@ IN REBEL STATES. ‘ting in States in rebellion ~epealed by the twenty- 4 March 3, 1865, and ‘ed the mustering through the influs, mented upon by the by them for the recent and an effort is being max NO MORE RECRUITIN, The law providing for recra. for the benefit of loyal States > second section of the act, approws the Provost Marshal General ims noth officers, commandants of rendexwous am! “department commanders accordingly, REBEL DESERTIONS.

THE EXTRA ALLOWANCE TO BUILDERS OF NAVAL VESSELS. A resolution passed the Senate to-day, diren “ng the Secretary of the Navy to appoint a competent ty ‘ad to inquire into and determine the cost to the conti °lors over the contract price and allowance for extras for the vegsels-of-war and machinery contracted for dur. the years 1862 and 1863, and report the facts to the nes Congress, None but those that have given satisthetion to the Navy Department shall bo considered. This ac- tion will place the iron-clad builders in a proper light | before next Congress. UNITED STATES SENATE. Extra Session. Wasmxcrox, March 9, 1865. A PRRSONAL MATTER. Mr. Seracve, (rep.) of R. I., rose to a question per- sonal to himself, He had been serving as a member of the Committee on Military Affairs, but the caueus which recently remodelled the committees had transferred bim from tho Military Committee to the Committee on Public Lands without any previous knowledge on his part. His State (Rhode Island) had little or no interest in the public lands. She was among the first to offer troops to put down the rebellion, and having himself served with them, and having much interest in legisla- tion pertaining to the military service, he had with much pleasure served on the Military Committee, He asked to Pes cxstant from serving on the Committee on Public as, Mr. Jonxson, (opp.) of Md., said this Involved an un- pleasant duty on the part of the Senate, and he appealed to the Senator to withdraw his request. Mr. Wirsoy, (rep.) of Mass., said that when the Senator served on the Military Committee he was always found attentive to his duties. Ho (Mr. Wilson) was surprised when he heard the Senator had been transferred to another committee. He (Mr. Wilson) was sure tnat the change was in no way intonded to be disrespectful. Mr. Conxuxss, (rep.) of Cal., was satirfied that there had et ad intention to slight the Senator from Rhode sland. Mr. SpraGux said he had no further remarks to make. He thought the circumstances and justice demanded that the Senate should accede to his request. Mr. Suxrway, (rep. ist Ohio, said he could not vote to excuse the Senator. He knew the difficulty in forming committees, and he had no doubt that an entirel: factory reason could be given for th? change. satisfied that no disrespect was intended, Mr. CLarK, rep) of N.H., said that he himself was placed on the Military Conimittoe, and would change with the Senator the Public Lands, Mr. Srradux thanked the Senator for his kindness, but could not accept of his proposition, He should have been gisd to Ferve on the Committee on’ Military Affairs, ‘as his heart had been with military matters since the be- ginning of the war. He had left a command to come to this body. The Senate refused to excuse Senator Sprague from service on the Committee on Public Lands. PRINTING TUR INTERNAL REVENUE ACT. On motion of Mr. Suerxan the Senate ordered the printing of five thousand copies of the Amended @nternal enue bill, which is to be properly indexed. THE ARKANSAS SENATORS, Mr. Trosporr, (rep.) of Ill, from the Committee on the Judiciary, made a report on the credentials of Mr. Snow, Senator cloct from Arkansas, The committee say that in 1861 theconstituted authori- ties of the State of Arkansas, so far ag they could suc- ceed, took the State beyond the authority of the United States; and that, in pursuance of a law of Congress, the President, by proclamation, declared the inhabitants of that State to be included in the insurrection; therefore the committee recommend that the question of admis- sion be postponed until the next session, and until Con- gross shall take action in regard to the existing State gov- ernment of Arkansas. The report was adopted. CREDENTIA(S OF A SENATOR FROM VIRGINIA. Mr. Doourrrne, (rep.) of Wis., prosonted the creden- tials of Jobo C. Underwood, ag Senator elect from the State of Virginia for six years from the 4th of March, 1865. Mr. Trumput said the Committee on the Judiciary had just made a report in the case of Arkansas, which was in ‘a similar condition to Virginia, and it was therefore likely the cominittee would coine to a similar conelus on. Mr. Henpensoy, (rep.) of Mo., did not endorss the Sena- tor’s views. He did not believe that the President's pro- clamation precluded the Senate from taking action on the subject of admitting Senators. We should oncourage the re-establishment of the local State governments as a means of putting down the rebellion and guerilla incur- sions. ‘The subject was temporarily laid aside, in order to exe- cute the special order, namely:— THE ELECTION OF A CHAYLAIN FOR THS THRTY-NINTH CONGRESS. Mr. be Bed Ind., nominated Rev. Dr. Bowman, Methodist, the present incumbent. Mr. Harrys, (rep.) of N. Y., nominated Rev. Dr. Gray, a Baptist clergyman, of Washington. ‘Thirty-nine votes were cast, of which twenty were no- cessary to a choice. Rev. Dr. Gray having received twenty-seven votes, he was declared duly elected Chaplain. THE VIRGINIA SENAT@RA’ CREDENTIALS. ‘The consideration of the credentials of Judge Under. ‘wood wal then resumed. Mr. Doo.trrie said that the State of Virginia had been recognized by the Executive and by Congress. The Senate, when West Virginia was set apart as a separate State government, admitted Senators from the remaining part of Virginia. The further consideration of the sutyect was then post- poned until the next session. On motion, the credentials of Joseph Sogar, of Virginia, and Michael’ Habn, of Louisiana, were withdrawn from the file, to be presented and laid over until the next session. PAY AND MILEAGR FOR ARKANSAS AND LOUISIANA SENATORS. Mr. Morwitt, (rep.) of Me., from the Committee on Con- tingent Expenses, reported against the resolution referred to them to allow pay and mileage to tho Senators from Arkansas and Louisiana, on the ground of a want of juris- diction, and therefore ‘they asked to be discharged from the further consideration of the subject. The resolution lies over. THE COST OF NAVAL VEFRELS. Mr, Nye, (rep.) of Nevada, offered the following resolu- tion, which was adopted ;— Mt ‘That the Secretary of the Navy be ested to erpontents boardsof not lous thas tares ‘comnpotssy | whose duty ft shall be to inquire into and determine how much the vessels-of-war and ateam machinery contracted for rtment in the years 1362 and 1968 cost the con- tractors over and above the contract price and allowance for extra work, and report the same to the Senate at its next session—none but those that have given satisfaction to the department to be considered. EXECUTIVE SPSAION, The Senate then went into executive session, and upon tho opening of the doors again, at haif-past two P. M., adjourned, aa Travian Orena—Broomiyn.—Fuust was sung at the Brooklyn Academy last night to one of the largest and most fashionable houses of the season.

Assault on the Rebels Ready to Surren- ler. Tho Richmond Enquirer of the 7th has a reply to a cor - respondent, who inquires:—What mean these rumors of Senatorial committees approaching the Pres dent to sub- pi torms of submission?

Tho rebel papers of yesterday are particularly barren and dostitute of nows, and contain aot a word concerning Shorman or Shoridan. Yet the fact is considered well established that the former 1 still secon"! in North Carolina, and that the latter has captured Early <24 bis forced, and is now seriously threateuing Lynchburg, not in its actual possession. From the tone of the Richmond papers it would seem that @ reaction has commenced in Joff, Davis’ favor. Having felt warranted, by military reverses, in going to the extremes of abuse and vituperation, many are now considering whether they bave not unwarrantably at- taoked and abused him, and whether, after all, he has not poen made a Confederate scapegoat for the sing of his people. 2 + Pa “ae A slashing communication in the leading column of the Richmond Enquirer charges thoe who wore foremost im Sdvocating secession with being first in counselling uncondi‘onal submission, and boldly charges a plot to have been concerted among leading members of the rebel Congreas to conrpel Davis and Stephens to resign, that Hunter might become ex-officio President of the confe- deracy and treat for peace. The editor endorses the charge, and both proclaim it to be the pre-determined in- tention of General Lee and his army to seize the reins of government the moment a step is taken looking toward unconditional submission, and to carry on the war there- after, for the double purpose of establishing their inde- pendence and oxterminating the men who propose peace.

An effort was made, apparently ae a matter of form, to have the bills recom- mitted for further argument, ‘the bills have been before the committee for four weeks, ati the course which the matter has taken presents a cided rovolution on the railroad question. Albany hast been crowded with New Yorkers almoert daily, and whik rthe argument of counsel was progressing before the com) uittee the adjoining com- mittee rooms were thronged wit i them; yet the attend- ance before the Railroad Commit ¢ee did not include more than the counsel engaged In the ; wgument and the mem- bers of the committee. Counsol heard against the bill began by conceding that a Broa #way railroad had be- come an indispensable public ne cessity, and the only question was who should be regar ded as entitled to the grant.

UZOR 85 gondra! Arley, A further hearing was, however, directed to be given by the committee for the convenience of conain of the pro- perty owners on Broadway, the bill retaining ils place in the Committee of the Whole. It is evident that the proposed grants are now regarded as of comparatively little value to speculators, for the reason that the existing roads have concluded to make no change in their present rates of fare. To the Fourth Avenue or the Beventh Avenue roads tho change of th ir tracks to Broadway from the side streets would be a great improvement of their route. It is remarkable that of number of Broadway projects, especially those originating in Westchester, none have been urged before the com mittce since the fare quesiton was settled. ‘There are, therefore, but two bona fide applications for the privi lege. ‘TH SANITARY BILL RMSTORRD TOA NON-PARTIAAN CHARACTER. ors. 2 Tho Sanitary bill, which was rocommitted to be re- Ported complete, was so finally reported this morning. An important amendment was made, hanging the um. ber of commissioners from five to four, three of whom shall be physicians. The intention of this is to make the bili contorm to Senator Andrews’ views, 80 that the measure may be placed in the hands of the Governor in # form which would enable him to appoint a non-parti- gan board, two comm ssioners of each party, The Police Commiss'oners are, however, still excluded from control, and the feeling in rogard to that board appears to be such, as will exclude them from further increase of their pre- atives this session, . The debate on this bill last evening gave its opponents | 4 a prospect of a disagreement, which would insure its de- feat. The report this morning settles this matter, Four comm'ssioners are provided for, one being a civilian and the others physicians. The Govornor can place an effi- | cient layman in the Board for president of it, was equiva lont for the prosent City Inspector, the physicians co- operating in division of the duties and counsels of the Board. Such is the plan finally agreed upon in the for- mation of the new Sanitary Board, ‘The Assombly conmnittee will probably adopt the same amended form of Sanitary bill and report it this week.

Affairs Around Petersburg. the Richmond Examiner, March 7.] Tho lines around Richmond and Petersburg ary yot without any incident of hostility. It is stated that a few days ago ral Longstreet communicated with the enemy under a flag of truce, and that the object ofthe communication’ was to effect an arrangement for the re- turn of deserters on both sides, The Clarksville To'aceo Plan! mentions the prevalenop in that community of rumors of the evacuation of Peters- burg, and pronounces them without foundation. The editor says ho has late and positive information, direct from a general officer’high in command in the Army of Northern Virginia, that military affairs around Peters- burg are in the most promising condition, and there is every reason to believe that the city will be held indefl- nitely. Through the same undoubted source he learns that General Lee is now at his headquarters near that city, and that he nover was in finer spirits. The country may look with some degree of confidence for a most do- cided change in the general military situation before the of many days. Under the head of ‘* War News" the Richmond Senéi- wl of the 7th has the following :— Tt seems strange that Kichmond editors should have to 0 to Clarksville for news from Petersburg. There has en Ho movement of importance in the vie nity of Rich- mond for some time, and the usual quiet prevails. From other quarters we can only say thore is nothing to cause despondency, but much for which to be cheerful. It is not necessary to repeat the reasons why reticence is the proper course to pursue with reference to military opera- tions in quarters where the cnemy find difficulty in com- municating with his government. {From the Richmond Dispatch, March 7. After three days of continuos fine weather Grant still keops quiet on Hatcher's run. There is a general im- ression that he will renew his attempt to capture the jouthside Railroad 80 soon as the roads are firm enough to b ar his artillery. The Petersburg Express says the Yankees infront of our lines near the Appomattox got drunk on Saturday evening, in honor of the inauguration of President Lia- coin, and asked for a truce of an hour, which was re- fased them. The Case of General Ferrero. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Ihave noticed your reference to General Ferrero to- day. You do him tho greatest injustice, and, from your for. mer favorable references to his military career, 1am sure that you were not inspired by malice, but misled by the published reports. 1 entered the service with the Twenty- Orst rogiment of Massachusetts Volunteers, and wasa member of General Ferrero’s staff for more than two years and a half, and as fam not now in the service, having left it atthe expiration of my original term of service, I can speak impartially, with nothing to gain or to lose, by the course I may pursue in regard to the General. I suppose your remarks were based upon the reported findings of the court of inquiry. How much of an-in- quiry that court made in personal reference to General Ferrero may be judged fromthe fact that not one of the ten officers of his staff—those who knew most about his conduct at the fight of the 30th of July last—not one of them was examined by this court. Incidental proofs of the splendid conduct of General Ferrero on that occasion are, first, that his division ad- vanced further and captured more prisoners than any other; second, the General has been proinoted to be brevet major general since that action; that he was recommended by the Lieutenant Goneral for a new com- mand. But, in reference to the 30th of July, I encloeo my afidavit, which Task you to publish, ag well as this let- tor, in the same part of your paper and as consple ously ou published yesterday's article, That will be be- . ‘© you forgotten everything of the past?
